Overview
A blood in urine test used to detect and investigate haematuria is one of the most important investigations in urology. Blood in the urine may not always be visible, but its presence, whether microscopic or gross, can indicate conditions ranging from urinary tract infections to bladder or kidney cancer. Mr Mazhar Sheikh, Consultant Urologist in Lancashire, offers a comprehensive blood in urine testing pathway to identify the cause quickly, accurately, and with minimal disruption to the patient.
